Hadn't seen this! Thank you! Will check up on it and post back here.

Hello everyone, I would like to start playing around with acoustic levitation. Apologies if this is the wrong sub-forum... I psoted in General, as I am not sure where the best place would be for this. My question: What equipment would be needed to start a simple acoustic levitation? I have no...

Mech_Engineer, Thank you for your awesome reply. Very, very informative. I am in the process of gathering the images for comparisson. I am also printing the USAF Resolution chart to test... And reading up on that blog post "Testing Camera Lenses". Amazing. I knew it wasn't easy the...

Hello everyone! I recently bought a small raspberryPi board, with its small "camera board". (link for camera reference) I want to use a CS lens on this camera (CS lens from the security camera industry). I have been able to attach the lens, and it focuses very good, yet not "excellent"...

Good feedback Khashishi and cronanster. I do believe I am confusing a magnetic field with an electric field. Can you think of any way where I could get some sort of "electron cloud" going, without interference (minimized) from the positive ions?

Thanks Khashishi! I'm thinking about what you posted... I think I should now start actually creating a successful vacuum, and keep on going from there. Here is a sketch of what I was thinking. Please let me know if I am way off base, or... if this is possible? What do you guys think?

Thanks for your reply Jolb! I realize there are many health hazards involved, yet I will take them into account and deal with them the best I can. Curiously, your off-hand estimate of separating the electron cloud a micrometer or less... that's enough for the experiment I want to conduct. I'm...

Hello everyone, I want to create a plasma chamber, and so far, I have a vacuum bell. I have a couple of questions... excuse if I have the terminology wrong. I would like to create a plasma, and then apply a DC magnetic field, so the electron cloud "separates" somewhat from the gas. I have...

Hello everyone! I want to do a small project, and would like your thoughts: I'm going to build a small genset, with a target power output of 3kW, and "one person carry" possibility. Using liquid fuel, probably gasoline. Although if diesel is a possibility, that would be interesting to...
